The team only sits behind #1 Indiana and #2 Duke, though it's a tight fit at the top. Just 60 points separate Miami from Indiana, and only 16 between Duke and Miami.

The Hurricanes will continue its quest to remain perfect in the ACC with two road games against FSU and Clemson this week. Both are mediocre, middle-of-the-pack ACC teams this season.

Update: Over in The USA Today Coaches Poll, the Canes are ranked fourth, but received five first place votes. Duke, the team Miami completely routed a few weeks back is ranked first. Indiana and Gonzaga took second and third place.

The Canes are up seven place in the poll from last week's 11th ranking.
